weave.n1zyy.com It’s currently butt-ugly, but Firefox users might be interested in weave.n1zyy.com and the Mozilla Weave plugin. In a nutshell, Mozilla Weave as a plugin will periodically (and on demand) copy your data (bookmarks, cookies, history, etc.) to a server. The main audience is people who work on multiple...

If I Made Software If I ever start a software company, I’m going to have CD images of all of our products online. (Or just allow someone to download a little app that will install the whole thing over the Web.) You’ll have to enter your license key to get them, of course. I’m trying to install a big application....

Daily Dose of Politics Wow, a lot’s happened in the past 24 hours. Vladimir Putin (President of Russia, not Germany) has accused the US of starting the war in Georgia, to benefit “a political candidate.” For once, I’m going to have to give the White House the benefit of the doubt on this: as crazy as...

News I never signed up for Obama’s text message notifications, but found out about 8am the morning he picked Biden when I checked my e-mail and some ‘pseudospam’ had been sent to me selling Obama-Biden buttons. I just got a text message that Sarah Palin is McCain’s pick. If I’m...

Something Delicious In the midst of all sorts of crazy stuff, and with Obama set to take the stage in 15 minutes to give what some have already called an historic speech, I thought I would take this moment to post something equally as important. Tabasco Green Pepper Sauce You’ve almost assuredly had Tabasco sauce...

On RAM So I’ve mentioned many times before that more RAM is arguably1 the most important upgrade you could add to your computer. I’m the type that likes to have lots of things up, like iTunes, Photoshop (which consumes a lot of RAM when you foolishly open 20 images at the same time, each 10 megapixels),...

fixAwkwardEntities Mr. T’s recent “Would you like to…” post displayed terribly on the main page, but was properly-formatted on his page. I’ve (*crosses fingers*) fixed it… For some reason, both Firefox and IE throw up an error ’symbol’ when they encounter a character with...

Weave Inspired by Kyle, I set up a Mozilla Weave server. (Link goes to directions, not my Weave server, since there’s absolutely nothing to link to or show about it…) A quick bit of advice: Weave has a “password” (which is used to authenticate with the server) and a “passphrase”...

Guns I’m probably one of very few (liberal) Democrats who is pro-gun. I’m not sure “pro-gun” is really the right term. Essentially, I think that the bad guys are always going to have access to guns, so I strongly oppose the notion that I shouldn’t be allowed to have one. “Gun...

Breaking News Has anyone else found “Breaking news” to be way out of hand? To me, “breaking news” is something major that’s just happened. When you hear breaking news, your jaw drops and you run into the next room and tell everyone. 9/11 was breaking news. A major earthquake is breaking...
